Statement I: Schottky defect involving stoichiometric cation and anion vacancies are likely for compounds and ions of comparable size.
Statement II: Schottky defect minimise mechanical distortions and charge displacement.
Statement II: Schottky defect minimise mechanical distortions and charge displacement.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
Both Statement I and Statement II are correct and Statement II is the correct explanation of Statement I
Option A is correct because Schottky defects occur in compounds with ions of comparable size to minimize mechanical distortions and charge displacement.
